Online Workshop on Conflict Management

Elevate your conflict prevention and resolution skills - tailored for both local and expatriate staff.

In the intricate dance of organisational dynamics, conflict, while common, can erode trust, jeopardise relationships or create toxic environments where collaboration becomes a challenge. So how do you navigate these challenges effectively? What's the blueprint for restoring harmony when things derail?

Designed specifically for professionals working in diverse socio-cultural environments, our online conflict management workshop will give you the tools to answer these questions and more.

Methodology

Tailored to your needs:

Starting with real situations you've encountered, we emphasise practical analysis over theory, ensuring you leave with actionable insights for your day-to-day operations.

Interactive learning environment:

This isn't your typical webinar. With engagement at the forefront, our workshop encourages active interaction between facilitators and participants. And with the potential for "zoom fatigue" in mind, we've incorporated reading segments, moments for personal reflection, and small group discussions.

Staged learning:

The first two sessions lay the foundations of conflict management. Apply these basics in your work and personal life, and return in subsequent sessions for more advanced topics and case study analysis.
